WHAT: Singer, songwriter and comedian John Charles doesn't spend much time on the mainland. In recent years, the veteran listening-room entertainer — well-known to longtime Walt Disney World visitors for his successful stints at the Polynesian Resort and showroom of the bygone Empress Lily — has been a fixture on Disney cruises. This weekend, Charles will offer a rare Central Florida performance, mixing his renditions of classic pop and rock tunes into hilarious family-friendly monologues.
